That was the web's fault.

Nobody writes desktop software for ANY platform because you can just make it a SaaS web-app and monetize your user metrics instead of begging for donations.

You have to be literally retarded to turn down free money.

Good, because unlike deskshit distros Android is actually usable.

modern android apps are almost always webview wrappers and they're literally just web browsers that don't let you zoom in
modern desktop applications run on electron/node.js and they're literally a web browser instance running a local version of your webapp.

>They think having the Linux kernel makes it Linux.

It's linux. What do you expect? the gnome or KDE graphic environment?

Also, fuck shitty apps. I am tired of every week read about a "new music player". No one gives a fuck about that.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

>the FOSS world thought anything good would come out of Google
They cucked the everloving shit out of Jerry Yang, why would they do anything good that didn't line their pockets or trash a competitor?

Linux will always have its place a shit*nix box or cheap webserver base.

Linux will go there too, soon, with systemd. Soon you won't be able to run a native kernel.

Fuschia fucking when

Linux users = Cucks

Desktop in general is dying m8, it's all cloud and mobile shit now.

How tho? On Linux you can change your software provider easily with mostly full compatibility thanks to open standards. I comparison Windows fans actively support anti-competitive and anti-user practices thus rewarding them for screwing the average Joe who is not informed and only uses whatever comes bundled.

Linux users are cucks for going along with Google walled garden at the expense of native Linux
